Did anyone go thru this? I know the younger the child is the quicker and easier the recovery. The dr says shouldn't be to bad, but I was reading thru old threads on tonsils and recovery for adults sounds really hard. Is 15 considered adult? Ds tends to be drama king and cant see him stay home in pain for 2 weeks.

My doctor says recovery for that age can easily be a month.
So if your child is in pain for a few weeks don't assume he's being a drama king.
Hatzlacha !

THIS. Cut the kid some slack, and buy him as much ice cream as he wants. Surgery is no fun, so let him milk it for all it's worth. When the 2 weeks are up, tell him he's had his break, and it's time to get back to business.
Make sure the school sends home work for him to do, so he doesn't fall behind (and to remind him that it's not a vacation!)

I strongly recommend finding a surgeon who uses radiofrequency ablation (coblation) technique rather than surgical removal. Two of my DDs had this procedure done at the age of 15 or 16, and the recovery time was significantly less than the norm for surgical removal.
There's also less chance of bleeding and infection.
